z
= 2 ; x , y , z ≠ 0 OR
Using elementary transformations, find the inverse of the matrix (

)

Solution:  
The given system of equation is

The given system of equation can be written as
[
2310
4−65
69−20
]
[

x
1
y
1
z
]
= [

or AX B,Where A = [
2310
4−65
69−20
]
, X = [
1
x
1
y
1
z
]
and B = [
4
1
2
]

Now, |A| = [
2310
4−65
69−20
]

= 2 (120 - 45) - 3 (- 80 - 30) + 10 (36 + 36)
= 1200 ≠ 0
Hence, the unique solution of the system of equation is given by X = A−1B
Now, the cofactors of A are computed as :
C11 = (−1)2 (120 - 45) = 75, C12 = (−1)3 (- 80 - 30) = 110, C13 = (−1)4 (36 + 36) = 72
C21 = (−1)3 (- 60 - 90) = 150, C22 = (−1)4 (- 40 - 60) = - 100, C23 = (−1)5 (18 - 18) = 0
C31 = (−1)4 (15 + 60) = 75, C12 = (−1)5 (10 - 40) = 30, C33 = (−1)6 (- 12 - 12) = - 24
∴ Adj A = [
7511072
150−1000
7530−24
]
T
= [

X = [

= [

⇒
1

1
y
=

and
1
z
=

5

⇒ x = 2 , y = 3 and z = 5
Thus, solution of given system of equation is given by x = 2, y = 3 and z = 5.
OR
The given matrix is A = [
13−2
−30−1
210
]

We have AA−1 = I
Thus, A = IA
Or, [
13−2
−30−1
210
]
= [

A
Applying R2 → R2+3R1 and R3 → R3−2R1

A ⇒ I = [

A
∴ A−1 = [

Hence, inverse of the matrix A is [
